My simple 43...

v0ac have you inspected your front spoiler bulging ends if you have any scraping marks?
almost all c43's have these scratches because they are low in the front.
you have a very clean engine cover is it brand new?
I fogott what size spring pads you had, front is a tad to low for me, I like the rear stance perfect gap between rubber and wheelarch

Congratulations, that is an outstanding looking car. Simple but gorgeous. I like the 18". I join what others have said, the front is a bit too low giving the impression that the springs have collapsed. What happens when you have to cross a speed bump?

True, I prefer clear corners but I like seeing those over the orange ones

17" Guess the low stance goes better and fills fender gaps and no need for 18". I may try that with smaller pads (don't know which ones I have now) to get a lower looking line and will be cheaper

Depending on how much of factory equipment options you have in you car, heavier car the thicker pad you get, if I'm not wrong?
it clearly shows v0ac has 17 inch on his c43.
these rims are not as sexy as the 18 inch rims, there is a total difference in design depth between both rims.

These cars should have come from the factory with the 18's off the W210 E55 and the motor out of the w210 E55. They could have detuned it to make them selves feel better, like they did with the C63/E63.... Sucks they didn't! We have to go do their work for them!
